Since you'll be dealing with a marine environment, I'd recommend using a galvanized wheel. I'm assuming your existing wheels have a 5 on 4-1/2 inch bolt pattern.

If a load range C tire (1100 lb capacity per tire) capacity is sufficient, the # AM3H400 wheel/tire combo would be work well for you. If you need a heavier weight rating, go with # AM3H440 which is a D rated tire with a 1330 lb per tire rating.

For a spare tire carrier, I'd recommend the CE Smith # CE22011Z and the padlock brackets, part # CE26002Z-2. A padlock like # ML1KA would complete the setup.

For 10 inch trailer tires you are limited to the 205/65-10 size. This tire size is a little over 8 inches wide. To go wider you would either need to go down to a 215/60-8, such as #AM3H323, or go up to a 14 inch or larger which would put you well…

In your situation changing to a higher load range tire will not affect the odds of a puncture (since the ply rating does not actually refer to layers of material in the tire but rather its strength). Moving to a higher load range DOES offer the…

Load range B trailer tires are going to have a lower capacity than C load range tires. Basically that, psi rating, and the ply rating are the only differences. A higher load range tire would last a little longer than lower load ranges of the same…
